My Kodiak has a 20” barrel and is absolutely marvellous in thick bush. Velocity runs ~2450 FPS with 300 grain Barnes TSX so no penalty there for the short barrel. By contrast my .375 Flanged Mag runs around 2410 FPS with 26” barrels. It is a double Heym but has the same OAL as the Sako Kodiak. I have another bolt gun on order with a 24” barrel but the jury is still out on how I’ll manage with the extra 4” of length. I like short(er) OAL rifles in the field




I agree with the shorter barrels, especially in the thick bush in Africa..
